Chapters 32-46Chapter Summaries & Analyses

Chapter 32 Summary: “Cleaner”

A cleaner found a bloody napkin in Femi’s apartment; Ayoola is unconcerned. Korede will never tell their mother about Ayoola’s crimes: “she would blame me for it because I am the older sister—I am responsible for Ayoola” (92). Only the house girl shows small kindnesses to Korede.

Ayoola wakes Korede to show her a Snapchat post by Femi’s sister: a neighbor saw two women, Ayoola and someone else, exiting his apartment that night. Ayoola wants to say that Korede was seeing Femi behind her back—anything that does not put her in a bad light. 

Chapter 33 Summary: “Bathroom”

Korede worries about Femi’s family bribing the police into action. If her father were alive “he would know what to do” (96), and he was the only one her sister ever feared. Korede is anxious and her room is too clean, so she goes to clean the bathroom: It helps her think. 

Chapter 34 Summary: “Questions”

Two police officers have come to question Ayoola. Korede and Ayoola have practiced what to say; Ayoola is “already a pro” (99). They do not believe anyone would break up with her, so Ayoola says he “wasn’t really my type” (99), and Korede came to mediate.
